And he said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?” And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself. (Luke 24:25-27 ESV)
The disciples of Jesus were confused, full of doubt, and beside themselves. Why? They had failed to remember, appreciate, and fully receive the things God had been saying throughout history, and especially now through His Son. Not only was His suffering prophesied. It was essential - necessary to what God was doing. Let us listen in faith.
